2. Defendant Scott Bradbury (hereinafter "Defendant") is an adult
citizen and resident of the State of Texas residing at [removed]xxxxxxxxx,
Bellville, Austin County, Texas xxxxx with a telephone number of
xxx-xxx-xxxx.
3. At all times material hereto Defendant was supplied access to
the Internet and to electronic mail (hereinafter "e-mail")by Flash.net
Communications, Inc., (hereinafter "flash.net") an internet service
provider located in Forth Worth, Texas, and by other internet service
providers unknown to Plaintiff including several services which allowed
Defendant to publish and communicate by e-mail anonymously.
4. At all times material hereto Defendant published material on
the Internet and by e-mail using aliases which include but are not limited
to of "Doc Tavish," "sonnyboy@flash.net," "Secret Squirrel," "Mixmaster,"

5. Defendant is a virulent anti-Semite who refers, inter alia, to
Jews as "vermin," advocates a "final solution" to the "Jewish problem" in
the United States and endorses the stereotype of Jews propagated by Julius
Striecher and Adolf Hitler stating, inter alia:
"What I like is the Nazi stereotype which shows the Jew as having
brushy eye brows, close set dark beady eyes and all accented by the
bulbous proboscis (big hook nose). I've seen the cartoons which shows Jews
looking like rats and I really think they are some of the most hilarious
visual images around- after all look at the typical Hollywood comedians--
all Jews! Who can't laugh at those rat like faces with the wiggling bushy
eye brows and those rat like snozzolas flapping in the breeze!"
6. At all times material hereto Defendant uses the services
provided by flash.net, with the knowledge and approval of flash.net, to
propagate his message of hate on the internet.
7. In addition to propagating his anti-Semitic propaganda on the
internet, Defendant has in the past and continues in the present to conduct
campaigns of harassment, defamation, and threats of violence against
individuals, including inter alia, the Plaintiff to this action, who
oppose his bigotry meant to frighten, annoy, and intimidate his opponents.
8. Said campaign of stalking and intimidation has been a
consistent pattern of behavior conducted by the Defendant over an extended
period of time.
9. Said campaign has included in the past threats of violence
against his opponents which has included, inter alia, the following threats
of violence:
a. On December 19, 1996, the Defendant publically made the following
threat to Keith Morrison, a citizen of Canada "I am a good shot Talmudist
if you come and find me I will demonstrate my skill to you. Do you have
any idea what the Desert Eagle .50 would do to your head? I would be legal
too- self defense from a rabid virulent anti-Christ. I promise you that
your kind are not welcome in my part of the country and I am on first name
basis with the local D.A. Hunt me down and you will be put out of your
misery like a rabid dog. One shot one kill. dead eye Doc Tavish."
b. On March 9, 1997, Defendant publically made the following
threat to person unknown "Author: Billy Dale McTavish . . . .Vengeance is
sweet and I know that the day will come when I'll get to see the sneak
that did this to me get a thorough interrogation from Bruno! I will love
standing there watching him peel your skin off layer by layer with his lash
and ever so methodically. Your screams of pain will fall on deaf ears. I
will take extreme delight in watching the foam come spewing out of your
vile mouth as Bruno gives you another! Do not worry for I will not let him
kill you. You must heal up and become well- so the process can start right
back over again to be repeated again and again. You will see no end to your
pain! I solemnly promise the day will come when the tables will turn.
Destiny will place you at my feet and you will pray for death and it will
by no means come. /s/ Tavish."
c On April 15, 1997, Defendant published the following threat to Daniel
Keren, Ph. D.: "I do believe that Bruno would derive great pleasure in
applying his craft to Mr. Keren. Yes Bruno is from the old Bavarian School
of inquisitive acquisition. Bruno knows how to stimulate every nerve but
yet not do any sort of damage. Yes Bruno would spend hours in a cold dark
damp dungeon with him. Bruno is a firm believer in the old adage: "No pain,
no gain." :-) Mr. Keren will probably over react to Bruno BUT Bruno went
back home to Bavaria a while back because certain ones in this ng hurt his
feelings! He is a big dumb brute in the common sort of way but he's such a
likable lug too! I may be able to persuade him to come back but I don't
know. If I can get Bruno back then may be Gunther and Gerhardt may return
too! They all claim that life is too hard for them in America with all of
this hatred by Nizkooks running around. They say it reminds them of when
the Communists ruled and how the Commies kept files on everyone. Reminds me
of what commie East Germany used to be!"
d. On May 2, 1998, Defendant published the following threat to someone
who disagreed with one of his bigoted rants:: "I just wish these dumb asses
would realize that they can't get away with this. I'll send a copy to
tavish-central, a copy to the Houston Branch of the FBI and a copy to the
nut cake's ISP. Now people can understand why I positively abhor the
majority of Kikes I encounter. Bruno at the moment is muttering about how
nice it would be if he would be allowed to interrogate this person. I agree
that Bruno should be able to apply his talents. I could picture Bruno being
slow and very methodical too! :-)"
e Defendant published the following threat to Mark Van Alstine, a
researcher on the Holocaust: " . . . . . Mr. Van Alstine is a saboteur of
Nizkor [http://nizkor.org; a site on the Internet about the history of the
Holocaust] and that is all we need to bring hin in for an especially
vigorous interrogation! He will not be so cocky after Bruno works with him.
Don't worry Bruno has never killed anyone yet and he is a master at his
craft. Bruno could rightfully be called a master of pain for he knows how
to work every nerve and fiber to achieve the results desired with the very
least amount of tissue damage. The man is devoted to his work as a true
artisan!"
f Defendant has published the following threat to Jeffrey G. Brown
"I'll beat you to a bloody pulp."
g. Defendant has publically addressed the following threat to a person
publishing anonymous material: "Why don't you identify yourself then? Bruno
has already picked the lash he will use in my interrogation of you. He at
first opted for his short fat bull whip. This whip does not cut the flesh
but it makes extremely painful throbbing welts that only diminish in pain
over a few days. He has chosen his custom stage coach style whip that is
nearly twenty feet long. Each stroke is just like a hot knife hitting
butter. This whip n each stroke cuts beyond the subcutaneous epidermal
layers. He'll literally peel you like an onion. Each stroke of this lash
will feel just like having a white hot wire streak across your back and
buttocks. Bruno is an artisan at his craft and he most eagerly awaits
hoisting you up in manacles to administer the "truth serum." I will relish
watching you flop around like a fish. Pleasant dreams!"
h. Defendant addressed the following threat to Joel Rosenberg, a citizen
of Minnesota: " Herr Rosenberg so very nice of you to slither out and play
tonight! We all see that you have not for once changed your tone yes? You
will change your tune very soon! They all do; believe me they all do! We
have a nice damp dungeon all prepared for you in Berlin. We will talk at
great length and get to the very root of your attitude yes? I personally
will not let Bruno interrogate you too long no!"
i. Defendant publically addressed the following threat of violence to
another person: "Yeah SOG [sic] just keep your mouth running while you can.
You'll be squealing like stuck pig when we shove the rotisserie skewer
where the sun don't shine on April 20th! You'll cook quite well over an
open fire! You'll probably give us all gas BUT that is why we'll have
plenty of Tagment [sic] on hand. Burp! Bruno says that he knows how to
tenderize you too. I think he wants to use his 20 foot whip! Ouch!:
j. Defendant has publically addressed the following threat to another
person: "I can only say that Bruno knows that this happened and right now
he is outside practicing with his whip. Her looks mighty g-d damned furious
in the hot Texas sun cracking that whip. Damn it sounds like a 30' 06 going
off each time he pops that thing. I'd hate to "Count 25" for him! Yes,
indeedy!! :-) Doc Tavish Singing "Our Day Will Come!"
k. In December, 1999, Defendant publically addressed the following threat
to Sara Salzman, a citizen of Colorado: "Bruno [sic] eagerly awaits the day
when he is able to peel your kind like onions with his lash. I could just
see the sweat and blood spray when Bruno lays on the flay. In your case I
wouldn't want him to damage your hide. I want a new shade for my floor lamp
and a new holster for my Desert Eagle pistol. Bruno would, in your case,
use electricity and the various exploitations of body cavities with large
blunt objects. :-) . . . . .Mazel Tob you witch. /s/ Doc Tavish.
j. On or about December 7, 1999, Defendant published the following threat
to an unknown person: "I will get revenge sooner or later for your inciting
blacks to harass me by e-mail. You're on federal territory now! You WILL be
ferreted out- make no mistake about it! BTW if you were to only think about
it- your very actions only make others believe that I am justified in my
dislike of your kind. You are sneaky rat like vermin meant to be hunted
down and eliminated. :-) Just call me the Verminator! /s/ Doc Tavish/"
10. Said campaign of threats was maliciously designed to frighted,
intimidate, annoy, harass, and silence any person who objected to
Defendant's anti-Semitic agenda by having a chilling effect on any person
expressing or considering expressing opposition to Defendant's bigotry.
